The 12 Kits of Occasions - October

Kara is our hostess this month sending all of us a gorgeous kit full of lovely papers and goodies with the Thanksgiving table in mind. Although the Canadian Thanksgiving was a few weeks ago I am inspired with so many ideas for next year. I hope you enjoy seeing what the entire team has for you this month, including Kara's giveaway. Details are on The 12 Kits of Occasions blog. So let's get on with the show...

Gorgeous creations! I love the napkin rings and place cards with the treat! And all of the cards are so lovely! Beautiful takes on the inspiration and sketches! So many beautiful papers and design details!

Beautiful! I completely forgot to use my place settings,you did an adorable table setting. Look at you ,you even managed to get in some challenges ! I like the way you used the tree with the stitched circle. Wonderful cards Tracey !

What a beautiful place setting ensemble Tracey!!! I loved every single picture and the buffet labels looked as yummy as I bet the food will! I also really loved the glassine favor bag with that cute turkey text paper! The little clip at the top was a great touch! Really good job, as always this month!

gorgeous cards! way to go getting them to work with all of these challenges. By far my favorite are all of the Thanksgiving table elements! Love everything, the food labels, the treat bag, the napkin rings...awesome!

Oh, gosh. You really took this one over the edge. How do you have time for all this fabulousness? They are all wonderful--a few highlights for me--the 'grateful on the brown background with the glitter strip, the cards using the retro sketches and deconstructed sketch (need to check out that challenge--I love sketches), and most of all, your incredible Thanksgiving ensemble. Makes me (almost) wish I were hosting Thanksgiving this year.

They are all gorgeous, Tracey! The dark brown cardstock really makes the stamped leaves stand out! And I love your framed tree. I totally forgot about the LI dies when I cut mine out. Adore your table elements! How perfect to use the place cards to name the dishes you're serving.

I thought Joyce was the queen of challenges, but you're giving her a run for it with this post using some of your kit. Your place settings are wonderful & love the lacy napkins. Your grateful & blessed cards are my favs!

Oh my, so much beautiful 'eye candy' today! Your cards are gorgeous, as always, and I love your Thanksgiving gathering ensemble! Looks like you've been a busy crafter and knocked it out of the park, Tracey!

Tracey...I just love the look of all your cards/projects on your window sill, it is so nice to see them all in one spot. Each and everyone of your cards is fabulous, simply fabulous! I love them all so I do not have a favorite but after seeing what you will be serving next year I would love to join you and your family...just beautiful.

Tracey, WOW! First of all, your ensemble is amazing. I want to come to your house for the holidays! :) I especially love the napkin rings, they are so clever. You were so smart to use the sketch challenges for your card designs. They are all so beautifully balanced and make great use of the elements in the kit. My favorite is the "blessed" card. I love the skewed panels of patterned paper, then leaf tucked behind the sentiment, and that gorgeous woodgrain texture.
